Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Scottish football

Scotland's newest ground has been given the green light to open today as the Almondvale stadium hosts a Livingston match for the first time. The Bell's Scottish Third Division leaders face East Stirling with their pounds 5m new ground at Livingston finally ready for business.

Jim Leishman took over the the team, formerly known as Meadowbank Thistle, during the summer and results have been spectacular. Livingston head the table and, after continuing to play their home games at Meadowbank Stadium in Edinburgh, are now ready to move.

"The stadium is ready for tomorrow but the gala opening will be on 18 November against Cowdenbeath," Jim Renton, the Livingston secretary, said.
